'Lindelof will star at Man Utd' – Larsson backs fellow Swede to be a shrewd investment

Victor Lindelof's move to Manchester United from Benfica will be a success, according to his Sweden team-mate Sebastian Larsson.

United confirmed they have agreed a fee – reportedly €35million – with the Portuguese champions on Saturday.

The centre-back will become the club's first close-season signing subject to completing a medical and agreeing personal terms.

Larsson, who played alongside Lindelof in Sweden's 2-1 victory over France on Friday and has spent his entire senior career in England, insists the 22-year-old will shine in the Premier League once he has had time to settle.
